Defense Logistics Agency Disposition Services Contracting Officer Annette Graham was presented with the Excellence in Acquisition award during DLA’s 55th Annual Employee Recognition Awards Program Jan. 26 at its Fort Belvoir, Virginia, headquarters. 

                Disposition Services Contracting Officer receives DLA award                            Defense Logistics Agency Disposition Services Contracting Officer Annette Graham was presented with the Excellence in Acquisition award during DLA’s 55th Annual Employee Recognition Awards Program Jan. 26 at its Fort Belvoir, Virginia, headquarters.            SHARE IMAGE:Download ImageImage DetailsPhoto By: Jace ArmstrongVIRIN: 230228-D-D0441-405Graham was recognized for her innovation in an international hazardous waste disposal contract that resulted in a successful contract agreement.

After solicitation failed for hazardous waste located at U.S. military sites in Turkey, Graham realized the contract needed a new approach. 

Shortly after the contract was reassigned to her, Graham identified a challenge that prevented Turkish companies from bidding on the contract. They did not understand the terms within the contract due to the language divide. “A language barrier was identified in the process after soliciting a long-term contract and having it fail,” Graham said. “It was actually one of many problems working in the region, but the language barrier and Turkish internet limitations pushed me to think out of the box.”

DLA Disposition Services has sites in 14 countries and provides reverse logistics support to customers around the world. Assisting international customers and vendors is a common occurrence for employees like Graham. 

She researched different types of contracts and determined a multiple-award blanket purchase agreement would allow her to work with potential offerors. She held virtual pre-proposal conference via Zoom that included interested Turkish vendors and translators - to mitigate the language challenge. 

“The CORs [Contracting Officer Representatives] provided the translation help at the meeting and were instrumental in helping me understand the interested vendor’s issues,” she said. 

Additionally, she assisted Turkish companies with a requirement hurdle by explaining how to register in the System for Award Management. 

Graham’s innovation helped the failed solicitation overcome challenges and her diligent work resulted in an award to three separate contractors that met the warfighter’s mission needs in the region.

Assistant United States Attorney, Roanoke, Virginia, for 

Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Andrew J. Danzaell seeks to appeal the district 

court’s orders dismissing as untimely his 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 

(West Supp. 2009) motion and denying his Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) 

motion. The orders are not appealable unless a circuit justice 

or judge issues a certificate of appealability. 28 U.S.C. 

§ 2253(c)(1) (2006). A certificate of appealability will not 

issue absent “a substantial showing of the denial of a 

constitutional right.” 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2) (2006). When the 

district court denies relief on the merits, a prisoner satisfies 

this standard by demonstrating that reasonable jurists would 

find that the district court’s assessment of the constitutional 

claims is debatable or wrong. Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 

484 (2000); see Miller-El v. Cockrell, 537 U.S. 322, 336-38 

(2003). When the district court denies relief on procedural 

grounds, the prisoner must demonstrate both that the dispositive 

procedural ruling is debatable, and that the motion states a 

debatable claim of the denial of a constitutional right. Slack, 

529 U.S. at 484-85. We have independently reviewed the record 

and conclude that Danzaell has not made the requisite showing. 

Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss 

the appeal. We dispense with oral argument because the facts 

and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials 
3

before the court and argument would not aid the decisional 

process. 

DISMISSED
No. 10-6501.

DLA Distribution Brenda Watkins retiring after 16 year career
 
  By Dawn Bonsell, DLA Distribution Public Affairs Officer
  Brenda Watkins is retiring from Defense Logistics Agency Distribution Anniston, Alabama, in December following a 16-year career. Watkins started her career in January 2005 as a distribution process worker. She grew up in Ohatchee, Alabama, where she graduated from Ohatchee High School. “The depot has been a great experience for me. My career path led me from working from the bins, preservation, packaging, packing and marking, receiving and now 513 receiving and I have given my best to the warfighters. I take pride in my job and always live by the motto that my father gave me growing up, ‘Always be on time for work.’" By constantly applying herself to learn more and do more, Watkins was quickly promoted to a packer in September 2005. In June 2012, due to her continued tremendous performance and unwavering contribution to supporting the warfighter, she was laterally reassigned as material examiner and identifier. In January 2017, Watkins was again promoted to material examiner and identifier in support of DDAA’s Retail Mission. Watkins has earned countless time off and special act awards. During her 15 years of federal service, she executed all of her duties with the utmost diligence and set the standard for other employees. Always mission focused, Watkins always accomplished the mission. Watkins met the “love of her life,” her husband, Alfonzia Watkins at the Anniston Army Depot. She is a proud mother of two boys, Tony & Roddrick and a grandmother of one, Calli, who is dear to her heart. Watkins’ hobbies are spending time with her family and shopping. “God has allowed me to take another step in my life and that is that I will be retiring on December 31, 2021. I can’t wait and I’m so excited,” Watkins said.

#### In the Matter of Evadne Dixon, Respondent, v Ashanta Marshall, Respondent.

[54 NYS3d 310]

Appeal by Ashanta Marshall from an order of the Family Court, Kings County (Judith Waksberg, J.), dated November 12, 2015. The order, after a hearing, found that Ashanta Marshall committed the family offense of harassment in the second degree and directed him to comply with the terms of an order of protection dated November 6, 2015.

Ordered that the order dated November 12, 2015, is reversed, on the law, without costs or disbursements, and the matter is remitted to the Family Court, Kings County, for a new hearing and determination in accordance herewith; pending the new *966determination, the order of protection dated November 6, 2015, shall remain in effect as a temporary order of protection.

A party in a proceeding pursuant to Family Court Act article 8 has the right to be represented by counsel *(see*Family Ct Act § 262 [a] [ii]), but may waive that right provided that he or she does so knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily *(see Matter of Graham v Rawley,*140 AD3d 765, 767 [2016]; *Matter of Nixon v Christian,*130 AD3d 831, 832 [2015]; *Matter of Cerquin v Visintin,*118 AD3d 987, 988 [2014]). In order to determine whether a party is validly waiving the right to counsel, the court must conduct a “searching inquiry” to ensure that the waiver is knowing, intelligent, and voluntary *(Matter of Kathleen K. [Steven K.],*17 NY3d 380, 385 [2011] [internal quotation marks omitted]; *see Matter of Graham v Rawley,*140 AD3d at 767; *Matter of Nixon v Christian,*130 AD3d at 832). “ ‘While there is no rigid formula to the court’s inquiry, there must be a showing that the party was aware of the dangers and disadvantages of proceeding without counsel’ ” *(Matter of Graham v Rawley,*140 AD3d at 767, quoting *Matter of Casey N.,*59 AD3d 625, 627 [2009]), and it is the “better practice” for the court to inquire about the litigant’s “ ‘age, education, occupation, previous exposure to legal procedures and other relevant factors bearing on a competent, intelligent, voluntary waiver’ ” *(Matter of Kathleen K. [Steven K.],*17 NY3d at 386, quoting *People v Arroyo,*98 NY2d 101, 104 [2002]).

Here, the record was inadequate to demonstrate that the appellant validly waived his right to counsel *(see Matter of Pugh v Pugh,*125 AD3d 663, 664 [2015]; *Matter of Cerquin v Visintin,*118 AD3d at 988-989; *Matter of Spencer v Spencer,*77 AD3d 761, 762 [2010]). Accordingly, the order must be reversed, and the matter remitted to the Family Court, Kings County, for a new hearing at which the appellant shall either appear with counsel or knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waive his right to counsel, and a new determination on the petition thereafter.

The appellant’s remaining contention is without merit.

Rivera, J.P., Hall, Barros and Brathwaite Nelson, JJ., concur.
Exhibit 10.(iii)B(1)
                                   EXHIBIT E

Performance criteria for FY 1997 - FY 1999 cycle include the following:
Aggregate Income, defined as the targeted income, before taxes and extraordinary
items (1), for the entire three-year period, as shown in the table below.

Performance goals and amounts funding the payout pool include the following:


Performance    Aggregate Income    % of Net Earnings to
   Level                                   Pool


Below Target         Below                 0%
                 $541,768,000

Target           $541,768,000       .83% of earnings

Above Target         Above          .83% of earnings
                 $541,768,000




During the FY 97 - 99 cycle, Farmland Industries, Inc. must return to its
members at least $147,285,000 in cash,(2) or no payout will occur under this
plan.

In order to ensure the integrity of Farmland's financial strength, a limit on
funded indebtedness as a percent of capitalization is incorporated into this
plan.  In the event that the indebtedness ratio is above the level which is
established by bank covenants at the end of the cycle, not payout will occur
under this plan.


(1)  The Chief Financial Officer and the Chief Executive Officer must approve
     the classification of any item as "extraordinary."  Transaction deemed as
     "extraordinary" and therefore excluded in the determination of Income for
     variable compensation include:

     .    The punitive portion of litigation results in favor of or against
          Farmland, excluding redemptive payments on normal business matter
          where the intent is to substantially restore net income to where it
          would have been had the incident not occurred.

     .    Nonrecurring (one-time) adjustments to income or expense such as the
          gain from settlement of the retirement plan.  Any such items would
          generally be reported as extraordinary items on Farmland financial
          statements under generally accepted accounting principles.

     .    The gain or loss on the disposal of a major asset, group of assets, or
          investments.

     .    The impact of adjustments resulting from LIFO inventory computations
          or reserves.

     .    Other items as approved.

     Specific requests by an operating unit for treatment of an item as
     "extraordinary" must be approved by the Senior Management representative
     before review by the Chief Financial Officer and Chief Executive Officer.


(2)  Cash Returned to Members includes cash patronage, equity redemptions,
     additional equity redemptions due to tax savings on net operating losses
     (NOL), ownerships retirements, capital credits, preferred stock dividends,
     preferred stock redemptions, and estate settlements.
